It serves no useful purpose and wasn't as popular as its equally meritless
cousin, srandomdev(3).
Setting aside the problems with rand(3) in general, the problem with this
interface is that the seed isn't shared with the caller (other than by
attacking the output of the generator, which is trivial, but not a hallmark of
pleasant API design). The (arguable) utility of rand(3) or random(3) is as a
semi-fast simulation generator which produces consistent results from a given
seed. These are mutually at odd. Furthermore, sometimes people got the
mistaken impression that a high quality random seed meant a weak generator like
rand(3) or random(3) could be used for things like cryptographic key
generation. This is absolutely not so.
The API was never part of a standard and was not widely used in tree. Existing
in-tree uses have all been removed.
Possible replacement in out of tree codebases:
char buf[3];
time_t t;
time(t);
strftime(buf, sizeof(buf), "%S", gmtime(&t));
srand(atoi(buf));

The settings in arith.h were not fully defined on powerpc64 after the gdtoa
switchover. Generate them using arithchk.c, similar to what AMD64 did for
r114814.
Technically, none of this is necessary in FreeBSD gdtoa, but since the other
platforms have full definitions, we might as well have full definitions
too.

__has_attribute(__constructor__) is a better test for clang than
defined(__clang__). Switch to it instead.
While we're already here and touching it, pfg@ nailed down when GCC actually
introduced the priority argument -- 4.3. Use that instead of our
hammer-guess of GCC >= 5 for the sake of correctness.
The preproc logic was added at the last minute to appease GCC 4.2, and
kevans@ did clearly not go back and double-check that the logic worked out
for clang builds to use the new variant.
It turns out that clang defines __GNUC__ == 4. Flip it around and check
__clang__ as well, leaving a note to remove it later.

First, this commit is a NOP on GCC <= 4.x; this decidedly doesn't work
cleanly on GCC 4.2, and it will be gone soon anyways so I chose not to dump
time into figuring out if there's a way to make it work. xtoolchain-gcc,
clocking in as GCC6, can cope with it just fine and later versions are also
generally ok with the syntax. I suspect very few users are running GCC4.2
built worlds and also experiencing potential fallout from the status quo.
For dynamically linked applications, this change also means very little.
rtld will run libc ctors before most others, so the situation is
approximately a NOP for these as well.
The real cause for this change is statically linked applications doing
almost questionable things in their constructors. qemu-user-static, for
instance, creates a thread in a global constructor for their async rcu
callbacks. In general, this works in other places-
- On OpenBSD, __stack_chk_guard is stored in an .openbsd.randomdata section
that's initialized by the kernel in the static case, or ld.so in the
dynamic case
- On Linux, __stack_chk_guard is apparently stored in TLS and such a problem
is circumvented there because the value is presumed stable in the new
thread.
On FreeBSD, the rcu thread creation ctor and __guard_setup are both unmarked
priority. qemu-user-static spins up the rcu thread prior to __guard_setup
which starts making function calls- some of these are sprinkled with the
canary. In the middle of one of these functions, __guard_setup is invoked in
the main thread and __stack_chk_guard changes- qemu-user-static is promptly
terminated for an SSP violation that didn't actually happen.
This is not an all-too-common problem. We circumvent it here by giving the
__stack_chk_guard constructor a solid priority. 200 was chosen because that
gives static applications ample range (down to 101) for working around it
if they really need to. I suspect most applications will "just work" as
expected- the default/non-prioritized flavor of __constructor__ functions
run last, and the canary is generally not expected to change as of this
point at the very least.
This took approximately three weeks of spare time debugging to pin down.

CUDA expects __isnan() and __isnanf() declarations to be available,
which are glibc specific extensions, equivalent to the regular isnan()

To provide these, define __isnan() and __isnanf() as aliases of the
already existing static inline functions __inline_isnan() and

This warning (comparing a pointer against a zero character literal
rather than NULL) has existed since GCC 7.1.0, and was recently added to
Clang trunk.
Almost all of these are harmless, except for fwcontrol's str2node, which
needs to both guard against dereferencing a NULL pointer (though in
practice it appears none of the callers will ever pass one in), as well
as ensure it doesn't parse the empty string as node 0 due to strtol's
awkward interface.

While FreeBSD's implementation of these expect an int inside of libc, that's an
implementation detail that we can hide from the user as it's the natural
promotion of the current mode_t type and before it is used in the kernel, it's
converted back to the narrower type that's the current definition of mode_t. As
such, documenting int is at best confusing and at worst misleading. Instead add
a note that these args are variadic and as such calling conventions may differ
from non-variadic arguments.

- `mode_t` is `uint16_t` (`sys/sys/_types.h`)
- `openat` takes variadic args
- variadic args cannot be 16-bit, and indeed the code uses int

Add an atomic shm rename operation, similar in spirit to a file
rename. Atomically unlink an shm from a source path and link it to a
destination path. If an existing shm is linked at the destination
path, unlink it as part of the same atomic operation. The caller needs
the same permissions as shm_unlink to the shm being renamed, and the
same permissions for the shm at the destination which is being
unlinked, if it exists. If those fail, EACCES is returned, as with the
other shm_* syscalls.

Described in [1], signal handlers running in a vfork child have
opportunities to corrupt the parent's state. Address this by adding a new
rfork(2) flag, RFSPAWN, that has vfork(2) semantics but also resets signal
handlers in the child during creation.
x86 uses rfork_thread(3) instead of a direct rfork(2) because rfork with
RFMEM/RFSPAWN cannot work when the return address is stored on the stack --
further information about this problem is described under RFMEM in the
rfork(2) man page.
Addressing this has been identified as a prerequisite to using posix_spawn
